Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
In a small bowl, mix the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Rub the pork shoulder roast with the olive oil, then evenly coat it with the spice mixture.
Place the pork in a roasting pan. Peel and slightly crush the garlic cloves and add them to the pan along with the thyme and rosemary.
Pour the chicken broth into the roasting pan to cover the bottom, making sure the liquid doesn't touch the pork itself.
Cover the roast with foil and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for about 3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Once cooked, remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for about 10-15 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the keto gravy. Pour the pan juices into a saucepan, and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Once simmering, slowly whisk in the xanthan gum, a little at a time, until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
Carve the pork roast into slices and serve with the keto gravy drizzled on top.
